I've got a few questions about the R32 GTS25. I've tried to search for info on them but have come up with very little. In fact I'm having trouble finding one for sale on the net.

1. How common are they?

2. How much do they go for? (Tried the tradinpost for an average but there weren't any)

3. How much does one weigh?

4. What gearbox is in one?

5. What speedo drive do they use, are they mechanical (like the 32) or electronic (like the 33).

6. Do they have LSDs?

7. I just need to confirm that they cannot be imported anymore under the new sevs laws, correct?

Here is what i know... others can prolly fill in the blanks

1. Pretty common. You see quite a few around. Probably less than an R33 - hard to tell, they tend to be a lot less done up with kits and the like than 33's i've noticed so probably stand out less.

2. Around 11-16k for an R32 GTS-T in melbourne.

3. Weight is 1320kg

4. Not exactly sure, but its good. Not many people have to replace their gearbox when spec'ing up their Skylines. Clutch often has to be upgraded.

5. I think they're mechanical...or was that the power steering? Anyway, not sure :P

Trading post is useless this time of year, nobody really bothers advertising. Give it a few weeks to look for other examples.

Bit of a difference between the GTSt and GTS25 predator :P

They're rare, I think i've only seen a couple on the road, and none for sale. Hence it may be hard to estimate the price, but i'd say somewhere between $12-15K. I guess they'd have the n/a RB25DE gearbox... and doubt they had an LSD (the GTS didnt).

Logically, they should be able to be imported, as they meet power to weigh ratios and so forth, same power as a R33 GTS and they can be imported...

I don't want another turbo car. I've already got one. I just want a nice car that I can drive around, to and from work thats comfortable and looks different. It gives me chance to keep the kms off the good car (the Calais). I'm not the biggest fan of the RB20, and I quite like the R32 shape. I can't afford a second turbo car atm, but would like one I can convert to turbo. I imagine that a R32 gts25 already has eletronic speedo drives etc, so it saves me some work down the track. Thats my reasoning for looking into one. If any one has some more info please let me know.

    • Shove more foam in it as a minimum if you possibly can. Or steel wool (not the stuff with soap on it!) Baffles / getting the oil out of the air is huge, and should be done at both the cam cover, and the catch can.   I'm about to do a power steering reservoir, and even that needs some thought to make sure air is separated from the oil, to stop evil Cavitation. I'll probably look at doing my own catchcan later on too.
    • I was once told, who it was I'm to old to remember, that the length of the OEM wheels brace supplied with a vehicle is designed long enough for a average person to apply enough torque to do up, and undo the wheel nuts to the specified torque  What a average person is is anyone's guess though, i.e. average fat bastard, average knuckle head, average perfect sized human......like me Unless of course, a tyre shop has ugga dugga'd them up to "torque to yeild/strip" specs, used cross threading as natures lock tight, or a big breaker bar was used to tighten them up to get some nice stretch in the poor old wheel studs Me, I torque wheel nuts to 1 elbow joint click, lower torque settings are based of wrist clicks, higher torque settings are based of shoulder clunks, or total dislocation for anything that requires all of the torques 
    • I think the catch can design is pretty flawed. Evident in the fact that the V2 one moved to a larger top mounted filter which alone would have helped with overflow and reduce restrictions compared with the side filter. I also imagine there was a major improvement to the baffling design. It is worth mentioning that this catch can with the RB20 was never as much of an issue and the high kms RB25 is likely a part of the problem. I have gotten quotes for both a new "Vibrant Gen 3" catch can and to modify this existing ones but that may have to wait until after the track day. I hope the sump/head breathers/drains and cam splash plates will be enough
    • Yep, both. The ratio is 1.8 instead of OEM being 1.7. The rocker bodies are modified with a larger bolt hole and re-threaded with 10mm holes instead of the 8mm YT has stock. Finding out they don't actually fit the stock castings cause a lot of un-impressment by the person in the USA who tapped the new holes for the 'upgraded' YT product. He was very unhappy with them given their previous design did not require 'clearancing'
    • That too, but I think this is why she's put the work into the cam cover baffles. I mean, a catch can should only need to be a catch can, not an oil air separator also. Not to say that putting the effort into having it do a better job of oil-air sep is a waste of time, but doing the sep earlier is always going to make life better. And that should happen now anyway.
